MouseOrbit Script: Follow Target Rotation?

[anon_81967667]

I’m using the standard MouseOrbit script on the camera. The target is a spaceship. I’d like to know how to make the camera follow the ship’s rotations. For example, if the ship turns left, the camera should also turn left. I’ve tried making the camera a child of the spaceship, but the camera ends up all over the place. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

yeah, there´s a nice working cam script at unifycommunity, i´ll post here because the page seems to be down atm.

var target : Transform;
var distance:float = 25.0;
var height:float = 4.0;
var damping:float = 12.0;
var smoothRotation= true;
var rotationDamping:float = 10.0;
function Start()
{
mass = 0.0;
}
function FixedUpdate ()
{
var wantedPosition = target.TransformPoint(0, height, -distance);
transform.position = Vector3.Lerp (transform.position, wantedPosition, Time.deltaTime * damping);

if (smoothRotation) {
var wantedRotation = Quaternion.LookRotation(target.position - transform.position, target.up);
transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp (transform.rotation, wantedRotation, Time.deltaTime * rotationDamping);
}

else transform.LookAt (target, target.up);
}

i hope this was helpful
